As I was listening to this I kept thinking it felt super familiar. The further into it I got the more I felt it. In the end I realized it’s very similar to A Simple Favor which is a favorite of mine. While this one is technically older, I read it after and I do feel that this has affected the way that I enjoyed this one. 

There are major differences but they’re similar enough that I found myself comparing and this is a recipe for disaster in reading books. This one wasn’t as enjoyable for me. There was so much drama I honestly found it unbearable. By the time it started getting good I was already over it and that’s unfortunate. 

It never really redeemed itself from the less than interesting beginning. While it did become gripping and interesting, that just didn’t overcome the early parts. 

⭐️⭐️⭐️ since it did eventually become interesting. 

Thanks to NetGalley for the 2022 version of the audiobook!
